    Pictures of your DIY lights - Post your pics!!!

    A few pics of my first cob build. I still have some finishing to do but I've been running it just for testing temps and draw etc. The light is 24"x24" and it is intended for a 3'x3' tent. The fans are not connected yet because I was an idiot that connected AC to the DC side of the power...

    Wiring question about types and ratings

    Thanks for the replies.. I was attempting to bring the DC voltage as well as AC for fan drivers to my light with a single 18/6 t-stat wire for simplicity.. I've realized it's not that much simpler than running proper wiring to the light so that's what I'm doing.. Thanks again for the...

    Wiring question about types and ratings

    Finally getting to wiring my light and trying to finalize a plan of how I want to put it all together. Can I use the 18/2 with the full output of the driver? I am using a MW HLG-185h-48a ( 48v @ 4a )and running it to 4 CXM22 leds. What I am wondering if I can do is use that wire from the...

    Few quick questions about wiring

    8 cxm22 on 2 hlg-185-48a. They would all be wired separately up to the driver if that matters

    Few quick questions about wiring

    50v leds running at about 55 watts each. Can I use regular thermostat wire? Also, if I am wiring in parallel, it's a good idea to fuse each led at maybe 1.5a right? Thanks!

    Does it make sense to buy an higher amp driver to run it dimmed to 75% or less?

    I am putting together a parts list for the light I want to build. I am planning 6x cxm22 light engines and 2x HLG-240H-C1750 drivers so I can overdrive if needed but run it normally at 1.4a or less. I don't know why I may want to do this or whether I would ever drive them at 1.75a but I'd...

    Taking the plunge! a few questions first..

    So now that my state is legal recreationally, it's time to get going on growing my own.. I have a 3x3 tent and I have decided to jump into LED's for lighting instead of HID. I have a few questions that I could probably search for days in this forum to get the answers but I am a bit too...

    Recommendation for tent other than gorilla

    I bought the vivosun and 1 of the deciding factors for me vs the others was the metal corner pieces where all others seemed to be plastic that breaks. I like the windows too and the zipper is solid quality.. I haven't had it long but I'm happy with the quality
